Kentucky Derby- Poem

 

The horses ride,

in the dirt,

as one wins,

and others lose

a most famous race,

for horses,

for people,

Kentucky,

everyone

every first of May,

on a Saturday,

the horses race,

and the people watch,

the colorful hats,

the women wear,

every,

single,

year,

signifying how rich they can be,

knowing that their horse will win,

the drink of choice,

mint julep,

a drink of alcohol and mint,

who wants one?

the drinks are one thing,

a party,

is another,

having a party outside,

as you bet on a horse,

and hope,

you win,

the money,

wearing the hat,

and being part,

of the fun

sometimes,

it will fall,

on Cinco De Mayo,

not only to celebrate,

the race,

but to enjoy with,

a sombrero on your head,

and more,

than a mint julep,

in your hand

this year,

it falls on,

the day before,

mother's day,

to celebrate,

we celebrate with our mothers,

who are there to watch,

and enjoy,

and even pick,

the winning horse

a celebration for all,

a celebration for some,

a day,

where the horses,

are the main event,

and one,

will come out,

a winner
